Density dependence in Caenorhabditis larval starvation
Availability of food is often a limiting factor in nature. Periods of food abundance are followed by times of famine, often in unpredictable patterns. Reliable information about the environment is a critical ingredient of successful survival strategy. One way to improve accuracy is to integrate information communicated by other organisms. To test whether such exchange of information may play a ...
متن کاملthe effect of traffic density on the accident externality from driving the case study of tehran
در این پژوهش به بررسی اثر افزایش ترافیک بر روی تعداد تصادفات پرداخته شده است. به این منظور 30 تقاطع در شهر تهران بطور تصادفی انتخاب گردید و تعداد تصادفات ماهیانه در این تقاطعات در طول سالهای 89-90 از سازمان کنترل ترافیک شهر تهران استخراج گردید و با استفاده از مدل داده های تابلویی و نرم افزار eviews مدل خطی و درجه دوم تخمین زده شد و در نهایت این نتیجه حاصل شد که تقاطعات پر ترافیک تر تعداد تصادفا...
15 صفحه اولSemi-field assessment of the BG-Malaria trap for monitoring the African malaria vector, Anopheles arabiensis
Odour-baited technologies are increasingly considered for effective monitoring of mosquito populations and for the evaluation of vector control interventions. The BG-Malaria trap (BGM), which is an upside-down variant of the widely used BG-Sentinel trap (BGS), has been demonstrated to be effective to sample the Brazilian malaria vector, Anopheles darlingi. We evaluated the BGM as an improved me...
متن کاملThe Genetic Basis of Host Preference and Resting Behavior in the Major African Malaria Vector, Anopheles arabiensis
Malaria transmission is dependent on the propensity of Anopheles mosquitoes to bite humans (anthropophily) instead of other dead end hosts. Recent increases in the usage of Long Lasting Insecticide Treated Nets (LLINs) in Africa have been associated with reductions in highly anthropophilic and endophilic vectors such as Anopheles gambiae s.s., leaving species with a broader host range, such as ...
متن کاملThe genetic basis of host choice and resting behavior in the major African malaria vector, Anopheles arabiensis
28 Malaria transmission is dependent on the propensity of Anopheles mosquitoes to bite 29 humans (anthropophily) instead of other dead end hosts. Recent increases in the usage 30 of Long Lasting Insecticide Treated Nets (LLINs) in Africa have been associated with 31 reductions in highly anthropophilic vectors such as Anopheles gambiae s.s., leaving 32 less anthropophilic species such as Anophel...
